The news comes after roughly 20 5G masts across Britain were attacked last weekend, with social media users citing conspiracies on 5G and COVID-19 and scientists and companies repeatedly denouncing the rumours.
The adverts are flagged under Google's sensitive events policy launched in January at the start of the epidemic in China and other countries, the Telegraph reported on Tuesday.
The clause includes an non-exhaustive list of potential violations, including profiteering and price gouging vital supplies and using keywords from sensitive events to gain additional traffic, among others.
Guidelines published by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) have concluded that there was no health or safety risk to the publish, citing over 20 years of research.
ICNIRP chair, Dr Eric van Rongen, said that despite concerns, his organisation had updated guidelines on 5G to "help put people at ease.
“The guidelines have been developed after a thorough review of all relevant scientific literature, scientific workshops and an extensive public consultation process," he said.
